Asura Emperor Venerable

Chapter 75: Chapter 75: Purple Crystal Cannon

Martial Venerable, this is not just the name of a realm, it is also a term of reverence for supreme warriors.

To public knowledge, Hua Yuan Nation had only one Martial Venerable, whose martial power reaches the heavens, capable of stabilizing nations and quelling chaos, immensely powerful.

This had become a symbol that provoked awe in all beings, on par with imperial authority.

But now?

Someone actually ran up to the Martial Venerate Mansion and kicked the plaque to pieces!

What immense provocation was this?

...

“That’s Shi Hao!”

“Yes, the same Shi Hao who just won first place in the martial arts competition.”

“He came last year too, as a fifteen-year-old student participant.”

“Sheesh, this young man is too monstrous. Last year, he was a fifteen-year-old representative and he didn’t win the championship, which means his strength was quite ordinary. But this year he’s turned so fierce—how terrifying must his progress have been over the course of this year?”

“Moreover, he’s so good-looking!” @@novelbin@@

“But, to dare to run rampant in Martial Venerate Mansion, isn’t he seeking death?”

“You can’t blame Shi Hao for this, I heard that previously the Venerable sent him a notice demanding he kneel and beg for death within three days at the mansion. I mean, when the Venerable says something like that, whether to resist or not, you’re on a path to death, so to fight fiercely is understandable.”

“So, this is a fight with his back against the wall, taking down anyone he can.”

“Definitely.”

There were always those in the know, sharing what they knew, making everyone else realize why Shi Hao would be so impulsive.

——You want me dead, why would I treat you courteously?

Inside the Martial Venerate Mansion, meanwhile, a ruckus broke out.

Soon, more than a dozen people rushed out.

There were disciples of the Martial Venerable, and there were servants of the mansion. Seeing the gatekeeper lying on the ground and the scattered plaque, all showed shocked and angry expressions.

Someone actually caused trouble at Martial Venerate Mansion?

What audacity, as if they had the heart of a bear and the gall of a leopard!

One could say that even the Emperor wouldn’t dare to touch the Martial Venerate Mansion’s plaque!

“You little bastard, how dare you!” someone immediately berated.

“That’s Shi Hao.” Someone who recognized him stated Shi Hao’s identity.

“Truly a madman!”

“Eh, where are the fourth brother and the ninth brother? Didn’t they go to find Shi Hao?”

This puzzled the people of Martial Venerate Mansion; had they just missed him by chance?

But being attacked at their own doorstep inflamed their anger.

“Fatty,” Shi Hao said softly.

“Hm?”

“Kill!” Shi Hao’s voice deepened.

“Alrighty!” The fatty was seething with murderous intent, having been beaten by people from Martial Venerate Mansion day after day. Although he didn’t sustain severe injuries, which normal person wouldn’t be enraged?

Besides, Duan Jinghong actually demanded Shi Hao kneel and beg for death, which also provoked the fatty’s wrath.

Whoever wants to touch my brother, I’ll kill them, no matter who they are!

The two of them stepped forward boldly. Although there were only two of them, they emanated an aura that could contend with thousands of troops.

“Just a couple of country bumpkins!” The disciples of Martial Venerable sneered, too disdainful to take action themselves and sent their servants to go forth and kill.

The fatty charged ahead, banging and thumping like a wild boar, charging into whoever he saw. With his terrifying strength combined with speed, anyone he hit was sent flying at high velocity.

Bang bang bang, those people were slammed against courtyard walls, pillars, rockeries, either with their heads shattered on impact or with their chest bones completely fractured, each death more gruesome than the last.

You should know that the fatty’s strength was already infinitely close to that of a mid-level Martial Sect, so what strength could a few servants possibly have? Could they possibly be Martial Sect members?

Seeing the scene of bodies strewn all across the ground, the disciples of the Martial Venerable all revealed a murderous aura.

They dared to kill in the Martial Venerate Mansion?

“Now, not even the king of heaven can save you!”

“Die!”

There were a total of six Martial Venerable disciples present, with the highest-ranking being the third senior brother, and the last being the tenth junior brother; they all drew their weapons and pressed towards Shi Hao and his companion.

“Kill!” they shouted in unison, swinging their weapons to chop down.

Shi Hao bared his teeth in a smile, forceful energy in operation, covering his skin as he faced them head-on, throwing consecutive punches.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

With each punch, if it hit the head, that head would instantly burst; if the torso, a large depression would cave in, crushing all internal organs; if an arm or leg, the bones would shatter into pieces.

He threw only six punches, and five of the six Martial Venerable disciples lay down, with only one having the fortune of not dying, but his right arm was dangling loosely, swinging like a snake, the bones inside already reduced to rubble.

Hiss!

Outside the door, or on the walls of the courtyard, the spectating crowd all turned pale, with several unable to help themselves from vomiting violently.

Too brutal, too domineering, as he showed no mercy to the disciples of Martial Venerable, clearly signaling a fight to the death with Duan Jinghong.

Thump thump thump, even more people rushed out, alert by the commotion.

The one who did not die, Shi Yang the third senior brother, was only a hair away from being a high-level Martial Sect, and so barely managed to save his own life, he shouted loudly, “Quickly, go call for our master, and bring the Purple Crystal Cannon, this person is a high-level Martial Sect!”

A high-level Martial Sect!

How is that possible?

Just a sixteen-year-old boy?

You should know that in Hua Yuan Nation, the youngest Martial Sect record is twenty-nine years old, and for the youngest high-level Martial Sect, it is thirty-eight years old.

A sixteen-year-old high-level Martial Sect, how could that be possible!

Yet Shi Yang himself was a mid-level Martial Sect, and he was defeated by Shi Hao in a single move; now he personally confirmed Shi Hao to be a high-level Martial Sect, could this possibly be an error?

“If this kid can survive this ordeal, he might well become a Martial Venerable in the future!” a member of the audience said.

“Yes, to become a high-level Martial Sect at sixteen, this has never happened before, such a prodigy—if he doesn’t become a Martial Venerable, I still wouldn’t believe it even if you beat me to death.”

“What a pity, he’s doomed not to survive this one.”

Suddenly, everyone fell silent.

What does it matter to be a high-level Martial Sect? In front of a Martial Venerable, they are nothing more than ants, not withstanding a single blow.

A Martial Venerable is the pillar of a nation, a Venerable among the martial!

“Let’s go,” Shi Hao said indifferently, continuing to move forward with the fatty.

The people of Martial Venerate Mansion fell back one after another, simply not daring to clash with Shi Hao’s sharp edge.

But just in a while, two persons were seen carrying over a cannon that was entirely golden, about the size of a smokestack, with a base made entirely of metal.

“The Purple Crystal Cannon!”

Many people exclaimed in shock; this was a grand killing weapon capable of killing Martial Sect members.

“Stone!” the fatty also shuddered, even though he and Shi Hao had both cultivated the Tyrant Body Technique, giving them far stronger physiques than the average Martial Sect, facing this so-called ‘Martial Sect-killing’ ultimate weapon, he too felt uncertain.

“Don’t worry,” Shi Hao said lightly.

“Hahaha, what blind confidence you have,” Shi Yang scoffed coldly, “Before the Purple Crystal Cannon, no matter what kind of genius or high-level Martial Sect you are, you’ll only be blasted into smithereens!”

“Don’t you kneel down now, and I might grant you an intact corpse!”

In the eyes of the people from Martial Venerate Mansion, granting an intact corpse is the greatest act of mercy.

Shi Hao, however, showed an expression of curiosity, saying to the fatty, “This is clearly a golden cannon, why do they call it the Purple Crystal Cannon?”
